Agreed. Very different types of movies. I know I'll be in the minority but I preferred 500. VERY re-watchable movie. Cooper's character in SLP was too annoying (by design, I know) for it to ever be in that watch it any time it's on TV level.

Silver Linings is better imo, but I really like 500 days also. I understand what the OP sees when he's trying to compare them. They both are perceived as Romantic Comedies, but they're not. SLP does have romantic ending,but 500 Days depresses the shite out of me. The dialogue between the two main characters in both movies is phenomenal.
